@ all my baby college students —
GO to office hours. GO. TO. OFFICE. HOURS. g o t o t h e m. DO IT. I SWEAR TO GOD GO TO OFFICE HOURS
i can’t believe it took me until my junior year of college to realize that a) relationships with people are important for like…being happy in your life?? and professors are people, and b) you can go to office hours even if you’re not struggling w the class.
i’ve always been like…i’m not struggling so what am i gonna talk about?? and then i end up not going ever at all. but like. here’s the thing. you can show up and just be like…i get this topic but i want to know more about it. show me some research papers. tell me about ur research. tell me about the other classes you teach. tell me about your experience w undergrad/grad school/ur career. help me brainstorm ideas for my paper.
and also if you think you have NO questions about the class content, that you know everything there is to know about whatever, you are wrong. just. come up w some questions. in fact, i think one could argue that the more you know about the content — the MORE you’re paying attention and putting in effort and doing the readings — the more questions you will have. they can be kinda off topic. they can be beyond the scope of the class. it doesn’t matter. pls come up with questions.
JUST DO IT. GO. if you go like three times and still hate the professor/the experience then maybe don’t but OTHERWISE, G O TO OFFICE HOURS. THEY WILL LEARN UR NAME. THEY WILL MEMORIZE WHERE U SIT IN CLASS. THEY WILL REMEMBER YOUR CAREER GOALS AND YOUR STRANGE PAPER TOPIC AND THE WEIRD FACE YOU MADE LAST WEEK WHEN YOU HANDED IN YOUR TEST. THEY WILL TALK ABOUT THE CONVERSATIONS YOU HAVE W THEM WITH OTHER PEOPLE (aka NETWORKING). when you need a letter of rec, you will be glad that you did this. go to office hours.

a fools guide to not wanting to die anymore
by me, a fool who doesnt wanna die anymore
- never make a suicide joke again. yes this includes “i wanna die” as a figure of speech. swear off of it. actually make an effort to change how you think about things.
- find something to compliment someone for at least 4 times a day. notice the little things about the world that make you happy, and use that to make other people happy.
- talk to people. initiate conversation as often as you possibly can. keep your mind busy and you wont have to worry anymore
- picture the bad intrusive thoughts in youe head as an edgy 13 year old and tell them to go be emo somewhere else
- if someone makes you feel bad most of the time, stop talking to them. making yourself hang out with people who drain you is self harm. stop it.

That’s some pretty good advice. I don’t know what’s left of my humor after ‘guess I’ll just die’ jokes but it’s worth a shot.
Personally i went from “guess I’ll die” jokes to “IF I HAVE TO BE HERE FOR 5 MORE MINUTES I PROMISE YOU I WILL BUY JUST, AN ARRAY OF CLOTHES.” and other wild hyperbolic stuff. Just replace the death part with something ridiculous and off topic. Its very entertaining
This also works with calling myself things like stupid, worthless, trash, etc. Even if you do this jokingly to yourself, your brain still believes it, and keeps up the cycle. Seriously, I found that when I stopped saying these things about myself, even jokingly, it made a massive difference.
Here’s a tip I picked up from a friend that’s helped me a lot — replace self deprecating jokes with ironically self aggrandizing jokes
Like every time I trip and fall, instead of saying “l’m just a disaster human” I say “I’m the epitome of grace and beauty”
Or like, when I draw a picture I’m not 100% happy with, instead of saying “my art is trash” I say something like “you know I think it’s time we replaced the Mona Lisa”
When you do that you get to make a joke, but you’re ALSO getting practice building yourself up, y’know?
And eventually it becomes a reflex and you get so used to it that you can say nice stuff about yourself even when you AREN’T joking
This is so important
